Efficiency Insight - April 2022
Efficiency Insight is the Energy Efficiency Council's quarterly energy management update for members, partners and stakeholders.
The countdown is on – only four weeks until our sector comes together for the first time in over two years for the National Energy Efficiency Conference 2022.
It's going to be so good to see you all in Melbourne, and there is so much to discuss. The embrace of net zero over the last couple of years has changed the game. As businesses set ever more ambitious emissions reduction targets, energy management has come into its own as a cost effective tool for immediate emissions reduction. And the value of the demand side in the journey to net zero is coming into focus like never before; as we transition to a 21st century economy powered by renewables, there is no pathway to net zero that doesn't include smart energy management as a central pillar.
As always the Conference is your opportunity to catch up on the latest thinking on all that and more. Details are below, including the full program, or you can register here.
Catch you very soon!
Best regards,
Luke Menzel

Welcome to new Energy Efficiency Council members
We appreciate the commitment of all of our members to our vision: we thank our existing members for their ongoing support and welcome new members to the EEC.
Jobs and skills: the EEC’s critical role in developing the future energy workforce
The EEC Professional Certifications Framework, which will promote the effective delivery of energy services, will be launched in June 2022.
Industry Insights: Industry 4.0 beckons a new world with smart energy management at its centre
We have come a long way in the last couple of centuries, having traversed four industrial revolutions. As illustrated by ABB, with advanced digital innovation, consumers and businesses have experienced profound changes and are now at the centre.
IEA EBC insights: Big data doesn’t have to mean big energy
Data centres are large energy users and with the global community committed to achieving net zero, each country will need to get its head out of the clouds – and into the cloud – to reduce its data centre-related emissions.
